Does anyone know if it is ok to clean your equipment on the lawn? Living in California I would like to be drought friendly, I`m cleaning my fermenter and was thinking, I just wasted 7 gallons of water, can I at least pour it out on the lawn without it killing the lawn?

their website says environmentally friendly but that could mean almost anything
That's what I was thinking! I might just dump it out and see

Test a small patch of grass somewhere not so visible and see what happens...

I've never had any issues dumping PBW or StarSan on my lawn.
I've dumped PBW on my lawn. While not the greatest lawn, it hasn't done anything harmful to the lawn. Even the weeds are okay with it!
As for the drought, the last time we were under real serious orders about water was a very long time ago. My neighbor actually reported me, a teenager at the time, for washing my truck twice in two weeks. I'd definitely be taking any water I clean my equipment with and reusing it on the lawn and such.

So maybe I should stop dumping it on the neighbors shrubs
